I am the one who argues for equal rights. How do you see that as being a
"snowflake"?

Quote where you think I said or implied that? Or are you just trolling for
attention.

Personal attacks from those who troll show their own insecurity. They cannot
use reason to show the message to be wrong so they try to feel somehow
superior by attacking the messenger.

They cling to their attacks and ignore the message time and time again.
